DS Jobs: Remotely Change User/Administrator Password

AdrianC's picture

This job (if you can call it that) is extremely simple. It allows you to quickly change the Administrator (or modifiable to change any user) password.

Step 1:

  • Create a new job.
  • Add a new "Run Script"

Step 2

  • Open the run script. In the text box enter;

    net user username password

Replace username with target users name (eg. Administrator)

Replace password with target password (eg. p4ssw0rd)
net user Administrator p4ssw0rd

Simple eh?! Still a good job to have in your collection.

This is absolutely essential for managing old clients and servers that are without any documention in regards to login information!
